Might match Japanese beetles in the disgusting category. Those without these 
large beetles that are not controlled by pesticides - consider yourselves one 
up in the garden when you have a few aphids.

The British are very sensitive to "vine weevils" in all writings.  I don't 
think I know what that pest is and if if attacks a variety of plants.  I 
notice vine weevils are mentioned quite a lot.  What are your vine weevils?

Please write an account of your trip to LeCourson (Frances's Chelsea) for us. 
 As you guys are European Union, you can bring home plants.  We can only 
wish.  Or, smuggle.  Have a wonderful weekend.
